Abstract

A new genus, Minarisomagen. nov., is described to include three small species of South African distribution: Minarisoma landeckisp. nov. (type species), Minarisoma crassipescomb. nov., and M. tigrinumcomb. nov. These species were previously assigned to the genus Onosandrus. Minarisomagen. nov. marks the ninth genus of king crickets known from southern Africa. A comprehensive key to the identification of species within this newly established taxon is presented. In conclusion, the taxonomic relationships of South African taxa are discussed.
